There is not a gentler, mellower, happier cry in the whole gamut of an April day than the seven- 220 THE ROLL OF THE SEASONS fold " Pay-pay-pay, " as some have written it, of the wryneck. In tone and pitch it is rather near the " J u S"J u S"J u g " f the nightingale. It is in its even- ness of syllable and absence of passion that it declares itself unmistakably picarian. We admit that the galloping hessian shrieks, but never will we allow that term to the cuckoo's mate. If the yaffle's is a ho...rse laugh, then the laugh of the wryneck is a silvery feminine ripple. It is in complete tone with the opening pink of the apple blossoms, the hum of bees, and the scent of violets. We have said that our wrynecks belong to the orchard. It is almost never, during their summer stay, that they are seen outside that rather narrow domain. It is a marked attribute of many of our summer immi- grants that, between their great travels across the ocean, they occupy the most limited of stations. The willow-wren has its special corner of the lane, and day after day can be seen sitting and singing on the same arch of blackberry bramble.
